To Trumpers, absolutely.

But considering more Americans are pro the "dreamers" than against them, as it's kinda part of the "American Dream" in a roundabout way, this actually looks like another flop in Trump's America to the masses. Optics. Optics. O to the P to the Tics.

He did not strike it down. The prior decisions are still in place.

From your own source - "While a major win for the Trump administration, the decision does not affect the current status of DACA. The program is still in place because other courts have handed down injunctions mandating the program continue while legal challenges to Trump's decision to end the program continue. The administration originally set a March 5 deadline for the end of DACA."

This will be going to the Supreme court later this year, they'll be the ones deciding this. And I expect them to side with Trump on this.

If Trump finally gets his way and sees the end of DACA, it's definitely a win, but only for the 10-30% of Americans who actually oppose it (depends on the poll). Although I am surprised how spineless the Democrats were on this issue considering the overwhelming popular support.

Dems are great at bending over for Rep Presidents when it comes to things that matter. I still fondly recall how Pelosi pretty much bent over and spread for GW Bush on many an issue, which was odd as Republicans/Conservatives voters hated her/wanted her gone(still do). You'd think they would have been happy to have a jellyfish not opposing.

Alternate Theory: Dems buckled like a seat-belt on this because they know it'll look worse for Trump in the end. Which is 4D chess, but still shitty a move.

Yeah, its true. Dems were ****ing pathetic on this issue. They only ever pretended to care, never really tried to fight for it seriously. They only pushed as far as they did because they felt slighted by the Republicans. Assholes.

Democrats need serious reform. They skate by on a lot of bullshit because the republicans are actual monsters but their shit stinks too. They were never serious about shutting down the government, too many of their donors bottom line would be impacted by it and they care far more about them then they do the lives of actual people. A lot of people hate the Dems precisely because they're such ****ing losers on issues like this. At least republicans fight.

If the choice is between honoring the full faith and credit of the United States and ensuring continued funding of the largest employer in the country and the essential services it provides, and renewing DACA, it is not a difficult choice. The lives of the many v. the lives of the few.

The people who are to be blamed are not the minority party who cooperated in good faith to put forward two pieces of bipartisan legislation that were soundly rejected. It is with the majority party who are effectively holding Dreamers hostage.

87% of Americans support DACA. So why harm the country, and die on a hill for Dreamers and still lose, when the issue will become a wedge against Republicans, and Democrats can live to fight another day, and eventually win? Sometimes in politics, you have to take a step backward, so you can take two steps forward. Party purity might make far-left voters feel good, but it gets them absolutely none of the things they purport to care about.

DarthPlaguis12

87 percent of the country supports DACA? News to me, they polled THE WHOLE COUNTRY? Unless that's the case then that's a bs figure

Id rather put Americans first.

Many Illegals do commit crime but the left propagates the lie that sanctuary cities are safer...yeah like Baltimore, Chicago, etc...so safe. Many also use fake social security numbers to get benefits etc. I personally know illegal immigrants milking the system but there's so many of you ok with it

This isn't something I've finally realised, I've always been more progressive than the central democrats that run the party and fluff their donors above everything. The sites I'm on and the video's I watch are hugely critical of the Dems as they are the Republicans, but its the difference between standard shitty politicians for the former and actual monsters for the latter.

I've seen it in the UK before. The Tory government proposed to impose austerity measures on the population in the wake of the financial crisis. The Labour opposition party crowed and crowed about how much they opposed punishing the poor for the actions of the banks but when it came down to it they calculated how many votes they would need to make it look like they cared but not enough to actually stop it going through parliament. They told the rest of their mps to either abstain during the vote or not turn up because they believed that imposing austerity would make the tories look bad. They didn't give a **** about how it would affect people. They cared about making the government look bad so they could get voted in at the next election. Then they lost that. Then the Brexit vote triggered another election and they lost that too.

Dreamers did not come here illegally, they were brought here illegally.

That is like sending child sex slaves to prison, because they were illegally trafficked here from another country.

They are here unlawfully, but they did not have the mens rea when they were brought here to actually have committed a crime.

Because it encourages bad behavior. If parents sneak into Disneyland without paying and bring their whole family, the whole family should be removed if they're caught. You don't just kick the parents out and let the teenagers and children go on playing.

There are legal ways to do so. It's those who do things the "right way" who should be rewarded. If you give encouragement to those who are basically trying to cut in line then there's less incentive for anyone to go through the proper channels.

I love how we're in the age where facts matter...until they don't. Trumps claims on the size of his audiences need to be immediately corrected, false claims like 18 school shootings this year? Meh.

Same here, and leftists do it all the time: confusing illegal immigrants with immigrants. They do this on purpose, because if they can say "what, you against immigrants working?" it doesn't sound as stupid as "what, you're against people coming here illegally and working?".

You heard him, it is "petty" to note the difference between someone who comes here legally and someone who doesn't. This is the same side that claims phrases like "chain migration" are ideologically charged and yet do not hesitate to use the word "dreamer" to refer to some illegals. Cuz you see being against criminals isn't so bad, but being against DREAMS makes you look like a dick.

Did you just equate America to a corporation?

Naturally, if you think a country should be run like a company, then yes, we can disregard ethics and penalize people for something they bear no responsibility for.

At the same time, if you think that's how America should be run, I hope you're consistent and willing to advocate for the end of citizenship earned rights as that isn't a concept that exists in coporations.

I'm in no way talking about removing ethics from the equation, I simply believe that the laws and policies of the country should focus on legal ethics rather than some subjective, abstract sense of morality that the majority of the country will never agree on.

If we're using a metaphor where the country is a corporation, then yes they absolutely do have citizenship earned rights. Citizens(people who are actually part of the company) get to go to the company Christmas party, have access to the company insurance policy, can attend the company picnic, and partake of the companies coffee dispensers. People who simply sneak into the building aren't welcome to those things. And rightly so.

Fam, ethics will always be subjective. It doesn't matter whether the ethics are legal, civic,or cooperate, morals are not based on objective fact.
You're aware the majority of Americans support the rights of dreamers? Alas lobbyists and campaign financing ensure our "republic" acts like a oligarchy rather than act on the will of people, but the majority already agree on something, they're just not being represented which has been a constant throughout the term of president who, surprise, surprise, was elected by a minority taking advantage of republican controlled chambers that again, surprise, surprise, a majority voted against.

Not that the democrats are shining themselves in glory, 17 of them voting to deregulate the banks like they were in the buildup to the financial crisis, and now using dreamers as a political chip to make republicans more unpopular.

Money and job security are more important than the will of the people, hence the slew of legislation we've seen passed that consistently had majority opposition.

And why again should we treat a country like a corporation? Further more your analogy fails because again, dreamers bare no responsibility for being snuck into the country, hence they do not deserve any ill treatment.

I never claimed anything regarding your financial situation, but regardless of your financial situation, the anecdote you chose, being a rebel in a highschool, was pretty bad.
